U+182CA "𘋊" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+182CA "𘋊" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, which was used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in northwestern China. This ideograph, like thousands of others in the Tangut block, represents a word or morpheme and was decoded through the efforts of linguists who studied the script's monumental dictionaries and Buddhist translations. Though its precise meaning varies based on context and decipherment, U+182CA contributes to the growing digital preservation of a complex logographic writing system that was largely unknown to the modern world until the 20th century.
